2-Bromo-3-nitrobenzoic acid

CAS: 573-54-6

2-Bromo-3-nitrobenzoic acid is a reactive chemical used as an antibacterial agent. It inhibits the growth of staphylococcus by inhibiting the synthesis of DNA and protein, which are required for cell division. 2-Bromo-3-nitrobenzoic acid is also effective against mammalian cells, but not against bacteria that grow in a thionyl environment. The chemical reacts with chloride to form 2-bromo-3-chlorobenzoic acid, which can be converted to mercaptoacetic acid by means of reduction with sodium dithionite. Mercaptoacetic acid inhibits bacterial growth by blocking the synthesis of proteins necessary for cell division. 2-Bromo-3-nitrobenzoic acid is synthesized from bromine and nitric acid, while mercaptoacetic acid is synthesized from bromine and acetic anhydride.
